At least with a Democrat Leftist Administration, as opposed to a McCain Leftist with a GOP Label Administration, the Democrats would get all the political fall out of their disastrous political decisions and the GOP would unite in fighting them. The worst of all possible worlds for Conservatives in 2008 would be McCain getting elected President.

Exactly. Good, very good analysis. Yes, I would have a hard time pulling the presidential "R" lever.

BTW, the Mitt rally is over; he had good attendance. Foxstream switched to Hillary and listening to her was like fingernails on blackboards. Think I'll listen to Rush's Friday show since I missed it.

I was just about to say that I am feeling sick.

I’m trying to remain positive.

“Conservative McCaniac” is a solid oxymoron.

Wow. That chart looks to me like the worst case scenario.

I’m sorry to see the other conservative go. It should not have been Hunter that was forced out now.

Sadly, it looks like Fred would have easily placed above Huckabee in Nevada if even just some of Duncan’s votes had gone to him today. But it’s too late now and we run the risk of having no conservative at all left in the race soon.

I know this would please some [not all] of Hunter’s supporters who have felt it had to be Duncan or no one, but it will be a huge loss for conservatives, the GOP, and for the nation. We are cruising for disaster, and I don't mean to be melodramatic in stating it. It's just the facts, and anybody who is capable of reason can see it coming.

I think its logical to expect FDT will do better as the evening wears on - the rock-ribbed types are probably out in the farther flung regions of the state where the media’s exit pollers are too lazy to go.

Is that Foxstream on the internet? Do you have a link?

Yeah, but I’m not going to bash Fred for it.

This is what the liberals have sewn into our culture, society and educational system: People who don’t know much about government, American history or the marketplace.

It is intentional. It is planned. Liberals know they can control and ignorant populace with propoganda.

Now, we see the fruits of it: Even individual Republicans don’t have a clue. Senior citizens have become dependent on the government; entire families are on the dole. We have “big government” Republicans who are conservative on just one or two issues.

The Democrats have moved left and Republicans have moved left. Even in good old South Carolina.

I don't believe it, and conservatives here will figure out what happened. It looks as if this was a brokered deal with Democrats, like so much of McVain's career. SC is not New Hampshire. I think MH got a lift just for being southern.

McCain is known to be a mean-spirited whiner in South Carolina. He insulted them, and they did not forget. But it's a great day for McCain.

He got even.
